You get in a bad auto collision and wake up in an ICU. The doctor looks at you solemnly and tells you she had to amputate your feet.

What do you say or do?

1.  Scream and cry uncontrollably.
2.  Lay there numb.
3.  Ask the doc if you can get a pair of those cool blade prosthetics.
4.  Call your lawyer.
5.  Ask for some orange juice.
6.  Ask if anyone wants to buy your shoes.

    Such a cheery question! 

    7) Think to myself "Hey, I can finally have a dog that can go everywhere with me!"

    Thinking to someone else is impossible. 

      Think, “Hey, I can finally . . . ”

    :(

      Other. My immediate thoughts would be about not being able to do my favorite exercise: running. 


    :(

    Though I like to run, too, I'm not thinking about running for some reason . . .

    Because your thoughts are running overtime these days probably. Why people run in Somerville: Somerville is a wall community and people get sick of feeling trapped and there is so much noise right now jumping out of your skull is typical or headphones can suck if you hate music.

    :)   
    Actually, I remember when I replied to Randy D --  I wasn't thinking about running because I was thinking of how attractive I found the runner in the image he posted.  :)

    That can happen Wel. It's what side you stare at the most.

    7. Other

    It would be very difficult to take that bad news, but by putting priorities into perspective, at least there’s a bright side to it all. (Cough, cough.)

    Number two would probably be first for a bit.

    Then numbers three through seven at some point. (I probably would not do number one.)
